RedwoodJS▲203Hey everyone, I'm the original co-creator of RedwoodJS. (The framework that myself and Tom Preston-Werner, Rob Cameron and David Price built during Covid.) I had tried to build a developer tool startup (Snaplet), and failed. I rejoined the efforts to add RSC to Redwood, but I realized that we needed a much simpler framework that was closely tied to a platform (We chose Cloudflare).

About a year ago, I stumbled upon a new Nodejs language called "Imba", I found this language to be interesting and it seemed like it had a lot of potential. Doing a bit of digging, I realized no one had created a framework for it, so what did a normal dev do?
